<h2>Math Miscellany</h2>


<p>The math symbols <tt>&lt; &gt;</tt> and <tt>|</tt> are used

    only in math mode. Note that left and right angle brackets

    (which are somewhat taller than &lt; and &gt;) can be obtained

    with <tt><a href="ltx-403.html">\langle</a></tt> and

    <tt><a href="ltx-403.html">\rangle</a></tt> commands.</p>


<p>The single right quotation mark, <tt>'</tt>, produces a prime

    in math mode. You can also use

    <tt><a href="ltx-407.html">\prime</a></tt>.</p>
